On the staff committee. Everyone sat by the warm tank. On Tuesday, the dog informed everyone of the news of the loss of Nanjing, and asked everyone to discuss the future whereabouts of Wu Mujun.

Xiang Qingyun and Ke Hua were worried about their old troops in the city and asked to go to meet the breakthrough troops. Tuesday the dog agreed.

Zu Jing and Dai Heng reminded that Wu Mujun had inflicted heavy losses on the Japanese army here and should be moved as soon as possible. Tuesday the dog agreed.

Mr. Wang Lao proposed that the area of Maoshan is too small, which is not conducive to the development of the Wumu army, and that another site should be found as a base, and if it is nearby, it is better to take the west mountain from Yixing to the south of Liyang in the west of Taihu Lake, where there are 3,000 miles in radius, all of which are mountains and hills, which are enough for the Wumu army to move. Tuesday the dog agreed.

Wang Ziwei believes that although Maoshan is small, it is close to Nanjing, and should be used as a forward base for counterattacking Nanjing. Tuesday the dog agreed.

Liu Mao'er believes that Maoshan is still the only base area at present, and in particular, it has to take over the troops from Nanjing in the near future, and it should be properly managed. Tuesday the dog agreed.

Xiang Qingyun also said that if the troops in Nanjing were to be received, Maoshan was indeed too small, and the passage to Xishan should be opened as soon as possible. Tuesday the dog agreed.

In the end, Zhou Yanzi proposed that with so many troops, a large amount of food should be raised. On Tuesday, the dog admired his dad so much.

After discussion, Tuesday Dog decided:

1. Xiang Qingyun led the 1st Infantry Battalion and the heavy machine gun company of the artillery team to Nanjing to meet the breakthrough troops, and was not allowed to take the initiative to exchange fire with the Japanese army except for rescuing the besieged troops. It was equipped with 91 trucks that could be used, and they carried their own dry food and ammunition for 5 days. Another 1,000 pounds of horse jerky. Dai Heng took 1 radio station to contact the team and returned to Maoshan 5 days later.

2. Ke Hua led Li Haiyang's second infantry battalion and two artillery companies to guard Maoshan and be responsible for receiving the troops entering the mountain, getting out of the way through the mountain, and trying not to clash head-on with the devils.

3. Zhou Dagou led the special team to survey the situation along the way from Xishan and Maoshan to Xishan, and returned to Maoshan 2 days later.

4. Liu Maoer, Liu Qinghe, and Wang Laodun each led a team of capable personnel to explore the grain source in all directions, and returned to Maoshan 2 days later.

5. The transportation team, logistics team, and rear team are led by Qi Yuankai to prepare for relocation and reception, and Lu Ao and Wan Zixiong are responsible for safety and security.

6. Zu Jing led the communication team to distribute radios, bicycles, and horses, and kept in touch with various departments.

In the end, Zu Jing proposed to let the attacking troops leave with great fanfare, so as to mislead the Japanese army and make them ignore the Maoshan base area as much as possible. Tuesday the dog agreed greatly. So Xiang Qingyun was replenished with 12 grenadiers and 300 grenades.

Two days later, Zhou Dagou, Liu Mao'er and others returned one after another, and the situation was strikingly similar: the rear of the devil was very small, and almost all the villages and towns where they went were completely looted and killed, cut off from people, miserable, and extremely scarce in food and materials. In addition, it was Zhou Dagou who provided intelligence, and there were several devil strongholds on the line from Yixing to Liyang, occupying the houses next to the road, probably to protect the transportation line.

Tuesday dog analysis, Jiangsu and Zhejiang are grain-producing areas, although they were looted by the Japanese army all the way, but remote villages and towns should have grain, in addition, the supply base of the devil should also have a large amount of grain. Zu Jing believes that non-combat units should be transferred to Xishan as soon as possible along with supplies; first, they should first open up base areas, second, they should make room for later personnel in Maoshan; and third, once the situation in Maoshan attracts the attention of devils or attacks, logistical losses can be avoided and the burden on combat units can be reduced. Mr. Wang, Zhou's nephew, Wang Ziwei and others thought so. In view of the fact that the logistics department was ready to stop, it was decided to move that night.

At night, under the cover of the special team, the Wu brothers took out the magic weapon of guarding the house------ and fainted the bullets, and turned the devils in the strongholds along the road overturned. Because, considering that it does not attract the attention of the devils, not a single devil is killed or injured, but it is monitored by the special forces. In this way, more than 200 large vehicles and hundreds of troops easily crossed the road and entered the West Mountain.

The next day, the devil guarding the road woke up and felt very strange, seeing the traces of the large group of people passing outside, thinking that he was derelict in his duty caused by snooze, so he coincidentally did not report it.

In Liujiaji in Xishan, the advance unit of the Wumu Army was stationed here. Liu Jiaji was once looted by passing devils, many houses were burned down, food and property were looted, most of the villagers were killed, and there were only more than 100 people left in the nearly 500 villages. Under the auspices of Mr. Wang and Zhou Yuzi, food was distributed to the villagers, and the troops were temporarily stationed in Liujiaji.

Zhou Dagou is now a mature commander, on the one hand, he sent Lu Ao to guard at the intersection and keep in touch with Maoshan, on the other hand, he sent Wan Zixiong to inspect the Xishan to inspect a better station, which is too close to the highway and is not an ideal base center, on the other hand, please ask Qi Yuanfeng's transport team and the rear team to go out to purchase food together, and ask Mr. Wang and Wang Ziwei to settle the wounded.

Xiang Qingyun led the troops to Chunhua. Because he wanted to tell the devil that Wu Mujun had evacuated Tennoji, he had to chase down in the direction of the devil's retreat. Along the way, the scattered troops of the devils, such as shelters, ambulance stations, supply stations, and traffic command posts, were all killed and looted by him, but he didn't expect the rear of the devils to be so empty. Before he arrived in Chunhua, he had already seized 1 truck of medicine and equipment, 10 trucks of ammunition, 2 trucks of gasoline, and more than a dozen trucks of food, so he had to send 1 platoon of troops to escort him back first. Xiang Qingyun is not a fierce general who can only fight, his thinking is very thorough. Xiang Qingyun left 1 truckload of food, 2 trucks of German-made or imitation German-made weapons and ammunition captured by the Japanese army, as well as light and heavy machine guns and 82mm mortars.

When it was dark, the scouts in front came to report, and 10 miles ahead was the camp of the devils in Chunhua.

Xiang Qingyun ordered that the troops send a guard to rest and eat in place.

While eating, the guard came to report, and a convoy came behind, about 4 or 50 vehicles, which was estimated to be a devil transport team. Xiang Qingyun immediately called a company commander over and arranged the task.

The devil's convoy drove up and stopped in front of Xiang Qingyun's team, and he was not surprised to see the troops lined up on the side of the road with loaded guns and ammunition. Xiang Qingyun and the others were wearing Japanese-style military uniforms, although they were slightly restructured, but they couldn't be seen in the dark, but all the soldiers didn't speak, and forced the Japanese drivers with bayonets not to get out of the car. A devil squad leader jumped out of the car and came to Xiang Qingyun, who was sitting by the bonfire, and was about to see the rank and prepare to salute or accept the salute, when he was hacked to death by Xiang Qingyun. Then, before the other devils fired a shot, they were dealt with with bayonets by the fake devils, including the captain squadron leader of the devils.

After settling the battle, Xiang Qingyun pulled out 44 drivers, drove the 44 trucks that captured the devils back to Maoshan, and brought back the heavy machine gun company, because Xiang Qingyun no longer planned to fight the devils head-on. Because there are not enough drivers, the extra trucks are simply hidden on the side of the road.

At 9 o'clock in the evening, Xiang Qingyun saw Chunhua's lights and firelight in the car, so he sent scouts. After a while, the scout returned, less than two kilometers from Chunhua. Xiang Qingyun recruited the person in charge of his subordinates and issued a bold combat order.

The convoy turned on the headlights and drove towards Chunhua, and passed through Chunhua City, and saw a salvo of grenadiers along the way, and there was chaos in Chunhua City. The devil of Chunhua has not yet figured out the situation, and Xiang Qingyun has already led people to Tangshan.

Before I arrived at Tangshan, I heard the sound of fierce gunfire, which was the familiar sound of Czech light machine guns, Maxim heavy machine guns, and 82mm mortars. Xiang Qingyun immediately sent a company to respond to the gunfire, bringing 2 Makqin heavy machine guns, 4 Czech light machine guns, and the second and third companies followed up.

20 minutes later, Xiang Qingyun arrived at the area of the firefight, they were behind the devils, and on the opposite side was I don't know which army was fighting fiercely with the devils. Xiang Qingyun immediately ordered, and the Makqin heavy machine gun and the Czech light machine gun opened fire on the devil. This will let the opposing troops know that there are friendly forces here.

Sure enough, the gunfire on the opposite side became more intense. Xiang Qingyun ordered the grenadier to be fired again, and saw many ** rushing over by the light of the fire. Xiang Qingyun immediately lit a fire and sounded the rallying call. After a while, many ** people came closer, some were formed in shifts, some were in twos and threes, and some were individual soldiers, and Xiang Qingyun arranged people to guide them to assemble on the roadside. Because it was dark, the devils just shot indiscriminately and didn't dare to attack, so Xiang Qingyun easily responded to the number of ** troops.

By 3 o'clock in the evening, Xiang Qingyun saw that there were fewer and fewer people to receive, so he arranged to retreat. In the back, the second and third companies gathered together and found that this unit was actually a supplementary regiment of the 87th Division, the regiment commander Zhao Dahu was seriously wounded, and many brothers from the pikemen and pistol teams were there. The commander of the second and third companies hurriedly brought food to the brothers and let them rest.

By the time Xiang Qingyun was withdrawn, Zhao Dahu had been transported back to Maoshan by truck along with the other wounded. Xiang Qingyun replenished the equipment and food for Brother **, and allocated some troops to lead the way, guiding them to lurk during the day and go to the place near Chunhua where the truck was hidden at night. Because many of the people in the supplementary group were from the Wumu Gang of bodyguards and thugs, many of them could drive, so Xiang Qingyun asked them to drive the truck back.

Xiang Qingyun arranged the remnants of the supplementary regiment and sorted out his own team, and now he only has three companies and two companies. He gathered the squad and platoon company commanders and issued a new combat mission: rush to Tangshan before dawn, and bring enough food for the equipment hidden by each squad and platoon company along the way; Before dawn, concentrate on attacking the devils again, and then act independently in squads and platoons, mainly to meet the breakthrough troops, and are not allowed to take the initiative to engage the enemy; After receiving the ** troops, the formed ones sent people to bring them back to Maoshan, and the stragglers were contained, and after 3 or 40 people, a squad was sent to bring them back; After 4 days, regardless of the result, it is necessary to return to Maoshan.

When it was almost dawn, Xiang Qingyun rushed to Tangshan. He drove the convoy off the road and rested under a hill, where they hadn't rested for nearly 20 hours. After arranging the troops, Xiang Qingyun took the three company commanders to the top of the mountain, resting while waiting for the observation of the form after dawn. The commander of the first company said: "It's strange, this is the commanding heights guarding the roadside, and the devils didn't even send people to occupy it, and it seems that the devils are not very good at using soldiers!" Xiang Qingyun said with a smile: "The devils are indeed powerful, don't underestimate them, their overall command level, individual soldier quality, and firepower configuration are better than ours; Our 87th Division is okay, you haven't seen other miscellaneous troops, I saw it when I went to other troops with my commander last year, and some of the troops are not even as good as the militia regiment; The most important thing is that the overall fighting spirit of the devils, especially the fighting spirit of the decision-making level, is far stronger than ours; By the way, the devil doesn't want to be here, maybe the attack speed is too fast, the troops are insufficient, how about we set up a contact point here?" The three company commanders claimed to be good.

So, Xiang Qingyun ordered the remaining platoon of the three company commanders to go back and pick up the equipment hidden halfway.

As soon as it was dawn, gunfire rang out from the north. Xiang Qingyun looked through a telescope: contrary to the situation on the entire battlefield, a large number of ** took the offensive, with about one regiment of troops; The Japanese army was on the defensive, and the strength should be an infantry squadron, an artillery squadron, and a heavy machine gun squadron; Less than 800 meters away from yourself.

The devil's firepower is more than 10 times stronger, and the brothers fall down one by one. Xiang Qingyun urgently ordered the second company to attack the devil infantry position from behind; A company of platoons leaned in from behind and hit the heavy machine-gun positions of the devils with grenades; A company of two platoons went up and attacked the devil's 4 mountain guns with all the grenadiers. The remaining company and three platoons set up 2 Maxim heavy machine guns and 4 Czech light machine guns on the hill to provide a signal for friendly troops to approach.

The second platoon first approached the artillery position of the devils, and the three consecutive shots of the grenadiers blew up the devil's mountain artillery, and then continued to use grenades to clean up the devils who had not yet figured out the enemy's position. At this time, the first platoon also opened fire, and soon knocked out the heavy machine-gun positions of the devils, and at this time the second platoon also occupied the artillery positions of the devils.

So, a large number of ** rushed over. They quickly occupied the destroyed machine-gun positions of the devils, and on the one hand cleared the remnants of the enemy, while covering the follow-up troops with the heavy machine guns of the devils. Although this batch of ** is defeated, it is obviously an elite army with extremely strong combat effectiveness!

At this time, the third company also rushed back with heavy weapons. Xiang Qingyun hurriedly arranged firepower on the mountain, but found that no one under his command knew how to use mortars! Heavy machine guns don't work well either!

Fortunately, the battle is over, and the devils retreat on all fronts. **Formation is being organized. At this time, a colonel officer led people towards Xiaoshanbao. Xiang Qingyun hurriedly greeted him.

The person who came was Qiu Qingquan, the colonel and chief of staff of the ** Central Teaching Team. He asked Xiang Qingyun about the origin of his troops, and Xiang Qingyun replied, and told him that someone in Maoshan had answered.

After listening to Xiang Qingyun's report, Qiu Qingquan was full of emotion: "Fuck, Lao Tzu can't defend his family and defend the country, and he has to rely on the support of the people, I'm sorry for my ancestors!" After saying that, I couldn't help crying. A lieutenant colonel staff officer stepped forward and reminded Qiu Qingquan to retreat quickly, Qiu Qingquan was furious: "What are you panicking about?!" **Look at the people! You leave me at the end and withdraw with them! ”

The lieutenant colonel's face suddenly turned red, his muscles burst out, and he yelled: "Yes! ”

Qiu Qingquan asked Xiang Qingyun again: "What else do you need?" ”

Xiang Qingyun was also not polite at this time: "I want to hold out here for a few days to meet other breakthrough troops, but we have equipment, but no one will use it!" ”

"What equipment?" Qiu Qingquan seemed to be very sincere.

"Heavy machine guns and mortars!" Xiang Qingyun is very proud.

"How many?" Qiu Qingquan was curious.

"Report sir, a total of 8 mortars, 6 92 infantry guns, 20 heavy machine guns!"

Qiu Qingquan was taken aback, obediently, this is a regiment of heavy firepower!

"Report to the brigade commander, I'll stay with the machine gun battalion!" The lieutenant colonel pleaded, his voice unusually calm.

"No way!" Qiu Qingquan didn't hesitate, "** want to die here to show me, don't you?" ”

"If you don't let me stay, I'll die now!" The lieutenant colonel drew his pistol and held it to his temple.

"Good brother, you stay! But give me back alive! We still have to fight the devil for a few more years, and we are not allowed to die in battle immediately, and I still have to build an artillery regiment and an artillery brigade, you are still useful, you know?! "Qiu Qingquan is an officer who knows the soldiers, and he knows that the lieutenant colonel has a certain heart of death.

"Yes!" The lieutenant colonel put away his pistol.

"The machine gun battalion stays and listens to the captain's command!" Qiu Qingquan gave the order.

"Just leave people behind, I don't want equipment!" Xiang Qingyun knew the significance of heavy weapons to the large army.

"Good!" Qiu Qingquan was not verbose, turned his head and followed the team.

The machine gun battalion was really well trained, and they quickly occupied the heavy machine gun positions and artillery positions of the devils, and deployed heavy machine guns and mortars on the hill to Qingyun.

After lunch, Xiang Qingyun gathered the officers for a meeting to assign tasks, and then learned that the lieutenant colonel's name was Ouyang Cheng, who was Qiu Qingquan's artillery staff officer, and now acting as the commander of the machine gun battalion, the original commander of the machine gun battalion was killed, and the machine gun battalion now has 217 officers and soldiers.

This mixed unit persisted in Tangshan for three days, firing non-stop shots with Makqin heavy machine guns and Czech light machine guns every day, and constantly blowing the rallying horn to notify the neighboring ** troops. In 3 days, Xiang Qingyun and they received several ** troops, and also contained nearly 1,000 stragglers, and finally the supplies were exhausted, and it was time to retreat at the agreed time.

Xiang Qingyun began to organize a retreat: artillerymen and heavy machine gunners were organized into the machine gun battalion in Ouyang City, and the machine gun battalion reached more than 500 people, 8 mortars, 6 92 infantry guns, 29 heavy machine guns (6 Japanese damaged), and a number of shells and bullets; Other stragglers were incorporated into Xiang Qingyun's three companies, each of which numbered about 500 men. At this time, the only 23 trucks were greatly insufficient, and could only pull the wounded and ammunition.

4 months ago, Xiang Qingyun was still the commander of a teaching company, and now he leads a team of more than 2,000 people, which should be enough for the level of a regiment commander, right? The fly in the ointment is that most of these people are mixed remnants, and they are still hungry, and some people will starve to death before they return to Maoshan.

Xiang Qingyun decided to have lunch in Jurong. There must be devils there, and more importantly, there must be food there!
